In a
tweet, Steyer said, "The impeachment question has
reached an inflection point. That's why I just announced that I
will be dedicating 100% of my time and effort in 2019 towards Mr.
Trump's impeachment and removal from office."

He added,
"I will do whatever it takes, for as long as it takes, to remove
this president. Not because I disagree with his policies. Not
because we hold different ideologies. But because the right time
to do the right thing is ALWAYS right now."
